    Hen losing all feathers

    There are pin feathers. Oh thanks so much! I wondered if it was moulting but my goodness she's almost completely naked! Should I be providing warmth during cold nights? I typically don't heat my coop (rarely drops below 30 here) but should I now that she doesn't have feathers to keep her warm?
